Subject/ Title: DRP Rerun – Release of Validation Data

___________________________________________________

 

Summary:  On May 22, 2006, the California ISO (ISO) removed the expected energy data posted to SC workspaces for the Amendment 50 and 61 Decremental Price Settlements Rerun.  The ISO will provide data for adjustment validation directly to SCs in the rerun validation CD’s scheduled for distribution on June 6, 2006.

Main Text: 

 

Expected Energy Data: On May 9, 2006, the ISO began posting expected energy data to SC workspaces to help SCs validate Decremental Reference Price (DRP) rerun adjustments.  The ISO provided this data as an interim measure until the rerun validation CDs could be distributed.  Due to file space issues, effective May 22, 2006, the ISO has removed the expected energy data from SC workspaces.  We apologize for any inconvenience the removal of these files may cause. 

 

Please refer to the May 12, 2006 Market Notice for the original announcement describing the posting of validation data for the DRP Rerun, at http://www.caiso.com/17f4/17f4c2725d12.html.

 

Validation CDs: Scheduling Coordinators will receive their first validation CD for the Post Phase 1B time frame (October 1, 2004 to April 30, 3005) on June 6, 2006. The four weeks dispute time for the Post Phase 1B timeframe ends on July 5, 2006.

 

The CD for the Pre Phase 1B timeframe (January 20, 2004 to September 30, 2004) will be sent out once the ISO has completed all the recalculations for that time frame, and the four weeks dispute timeline shall commence when the SCs receive their validation CD.

 

Billing Inquiry Process: ISO has elected to handle any billing issues through a Billing Inquiry process by e-mail rather than through the ISO Settlement Dispute System (SDS).  Scheduling Coordinators must submit Billing Inquiries to: RerunInquiries@caiso.com.  Billing Inquiries should contain the same level of detail provided through the settlement dispute process, i.e. detailed explanation of the issue and specific examples illustrating the problem. One Billing Inquiry can be submitted for the entire date range impacted by the issue, rather than separate inquiries for each trade date.
